@colourmeamused_ That stunned pause at ~ 0.55 to 1.18 when it realized it’s being filmed.
Meh, so what, keep mowing the lawn and fvck the paparazzi.

@Bill_Owen @nashville_brook 50 cents only?
A bargain.
Surety can milk the punters for at least a paper entry fee.

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage Good, and no, maybe not the best forum to get deep and meaningful in 280 characters or less.
Good work ethics, wonder if our current leaders adhere to them?
Suspect not.

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage Good that someones is doing the hard yards, can’t be easy work.
Much anger, frustration and unhappiness must oft come your way.
Hope you can leave it behind at days end.

@nashville_brook @Bill_Owen I share his sadness at moving to Florida, must be awful.
May he keep suffering.
Is there a fundraiser site I won’t donate too?
Asking for a friend who might.

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage Yes, it is my disappointment.
Hoped I’d live to see something better but probably not.

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage Lord Verulum eh, your Professor led you well.
Yes, time of great scientific change.
Some folk now, could do with a dose of being taught how to reason stuff out.
How does having a Masters in 17th century lit, run with Jobseeker these days?
Overqualified to take out the bins?

@James2071618969 @Russputin2 Granted mushy peas are an acquired taste but then so are frogs legs, snails and fried cockroaches.
Nowt wrong with Yorkshire haut cuisine.
Takes many years to perfect a great Yorkshire Pud.

COVID benefits?
International Travel no longer an option, personally seen more of Australia in the last 18 months, than in the last 18 years.
Might help if some of the billions of corporate support trickled down to make for cheaper internal flights, accommodation and meals etc.

@DavidKehoe10 @KKeneally Despite the fine print, it’s surely wrong.
Would resettling this family back to a town that is more than happy to have them really, seriously, open the floodgates for boats, planes and whatever to challenge our border security?
I don’t think so.
Who’d want to go through that?

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage Parallel tweet thread of late suggested finally embracing the Uluru Statement might be a start.
Don’t see it happening in the near future.

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage Interesting choice of Masters, where did that come from?
Every right to be picky.
Somehow western Westminster politics seems to have gone off the rails a bit in pretty much all of the old imperial colonial models.
Time for a change but begs the question, for what?

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@Neopseudo @26MoreLives @wa_waters @earlythorn @slsandpet So many talented people out there that give much pleasure.
Entertainment industry has been hit big time by COVID, but lower level employees perhaps the most.
Not a lot of support for the Arts from this mob, unless there’s something in it for them.

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@DanielMoye8 @Neopseudo @Tiddapage OK, so maybe another of my, not so good recent similes, but given Cromwell was as much a nutter as the Stuart Royalists, just how much has actually changed in the last 500 yrs, give or take a bit?
Surely we have to, now, get religion out of politics.

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@jean15849180 @barbaramahle23 @Russputin2 No, absolutely not.
Very important job, lest waste start to ferment.
Potential fire hazard from spontaneous gaseous combustion.
Us semi rural folk look after our neighbors bins.
Reminds me, they have to be out Thursday.

[MarkThackray @mark_thackray]

@barbaramahle23 @jean15849180 @Russputin2 No, you’re mixing him up with Scotty and his police mate neighbor.
